TARGET 70% OFF

Post by Bystander » Fri Feb 28, 2014 9:23 am

It didn't seem if everyone was aware of the situation in the other Target thread and I wanted to make sure that people knew about the new markdowns since everything will disappear fast. The last clearance wave went from 30% off to 70% off.
Check the other Target clearance wave thread to see the sets that were affected. There may still be some left that were not stickered or still marked at 30% off so use the scanners to confirm.
If the mods think this is unnecessary then feel free to delete.

Picked up The Rancor Pit (17.98), AT-TE (26.98), and Elrond's Council (7.98) at the 70% markdown.
The sticker prices hadn't changed to reflect the new prices, so there's still a chance they'll be sitting there for awhile till someone scans them or they finally get a sticker with the right price.

Went and picked up Hive Crawler for $17 and Bug Obliterator for $23. All the Lego clearance was on the endcaps and picked through!

I went by another store and picked up at 70% off:
Chima Ultimate Speedor tournament $8.98 - Eris Eagle Interceptor $8.38 x2
City Fire Chief Car $3.88 and another TMNT Shellraiser chase $17.98
I usually only buy 1 of each set, but I picked up a few extras because they were just too cheap. I will use them as birthday gifts for some of my kid's friends if need be.
The after-Christmas Lego sets never did go to 70%. They were salvaged after they went to 50% off around here. Not sure why these went through this price reduction schedule, but I'm not complaining.

I tend to try to pick up below $80 sets in pairs, as twin parts tends to give more MOC versatility.

My wife is currently on the hunt in MA for Daily Bugle and 2 Rancor Pits. If my wife is unable to score these sets at these great prices, I'd be willing to do business with someone from these forums for those sets...I could do paypal, or perhaps a trade (but I'm not sure what sets I would be willing to part with :) )

Argh - my poor wife looked at SIX different Targets for the Daily Bugle and the Rancor Pits. She didn't see any of the clearance sets - but it looked like the Targets were all ready (or getting ready) for the newest wave of Lego sets (hence, probably why Target is clearance-ing certain sets, to make room for the newer inventory). Still looking for 2 Rancor sets and a Daily Bugle.

I would gladly paypal the cost of the set + cost of shipping + a reasonable finder's fee for those sets. If I could save a few dollars by finding someone with two or three of those sets, I'd like to do business with you (although I may be sending you a PM in a few minutes, rgeezzy. Not that I don't appreciate your offer - I do! - but I am trying to be wise with my money.)

I do have a few sets for trade, also. 9526 (Palpatine's Arrest), 7958 (Star Wars Advent with Santa Yoda), 7954 (Woody's Roundup), 7956 (Trash Compactor Escape).

In addition, I have the following polybags up for trade also: 5002041 (Lego Movie mini-vehicles), 2x 30185 (Eagle), 30300 (Batman Tumbler), 30270 (Ninja Turtles), 30070 (Toy Story Alien), maybe a few others (I'd have to find them).

Please private message me, or post back here!

I think all the Targets here salvaged the stuff before letting it hit 70%. There was plenty the other day then all of a sudden "poof they were gone". Hee Haw gag.
Why do we drive on a parkway and park on a driveway?

EDIT: Ah, looks like I need a drop ship for the AT-TE. Was thinking the Republic Gunship was one and the same.

Picked up a Star Wars AT-TE for 32 +tax. It's actually the first Star Wars set I've bought. Been sticking to LOTR and hobbit for the brief year or so I have been into Lego.

It could be a reseller works at the store, knows the moment they hit 70%, and clears them out.
